Hi all, I wrote a plain makefile to work around the libtool issues when compiling Aspell using MinGW GCC, and it seems to create working executables (i.e. "aspell check foo.txt" works perfectly).
In case of interest, the makefile is contained in aspell-mingw.diff (take a look at the Readme.txt for further instructions). You can get it from http://ezytools.sourceforge.net/aspell/ Problem 1: WIN32_RELOCATABLE I didnt include the /bin dir detection patch (posted from Ruurd Reimtsa), as it seemed to work only when calling "aspell config", but failed when using "aspell check foo.txt". In that case, config.cpp/Config::Config() is called at least twice (found out by inserting a printf), and the retrieve_bool() function bails out the second time. It turned out, that calling have("set-prefix") returns "false" then. As I am *very* new to aspell (regarding usage and sourcecode), I havent been able to find out more on this. Does anyone have an idea to get this working as expected? Problem 2: Calling new_aspell_speller() I am trying to link aspell to a Gtk-1.3 based application (Sylpheed-Claws). I can compile it using MSVC as well as with MinGW, but both versions show the same strange behaviour: The list of available dictionaries can successfully be received, but the call to new_aspell_speller() crashes. While the MSVC version just dies instead of falling back to the debugger (goodbye backtrace...), the gcc compiled version falls back to gdb and shows that it stopped at msvcrt_a_iname(). I am currently unsure if this is caused by an incorrect compilation of Aspell (that's why I said "seems to work" some lines above) or by the calling application (e.g. a missing or wrong passed parameter). Has anyone encountered (solved?) similar problems?
